Hi all,
Got a new server and all is well apart from none of my domains can receive emails. They can send them out but none are coming in. I turned off my firewall, thinking it was that but no luck.

Using Redhat 9 all updated and WHM, Cpanel

Any ideas were to start looking?
Thanks

Check your exim queue, is it coming into the queue?

# tail -f /var/log/exim_mainlog

While tailing, try to send a mail and see what it writes to log.

Hi crucialx, theys nothing in the exim queue however, fcarsenal I'm getting the following when sending an email into the server.


2004-12-10 18:15:29 1CcpIf-0006Jz-4Q => :blackhole: <webmaster@domain> R=virtual_aliases
2004-12-10 18:15:29 1CcpIf-0006Jz-4Q Completed

Thanks

2. If not working try sending a mail from outside to a domainhosted with you and simulateneously do a
a. tail -f /var/log/exim_mainlog
b. tail -f /var/log/exim_rejectlog
c. grep domainhosted.com /etc/localdomains
d. grep domainhosted.com /etc/userdomains
c. cat /etc/valiases/domainhostedwithyou.com and get us the resuts..

Sure I love helping you with this issue :-)

Try:

/scripts/exim4
/scripts/buildeximconf
/scripts/upcp --force

We had a similar problem the other day, and I know our admins were working on it for about 10 hours or more. I think what they eventually found fixed the problem was the buildeximconf... Hope it helps :)

Thanks for all your help.
Worked out the problem, I think.
All incoming emails were being sent to blackhole.
Don't know why but the default email address was set too.... guess what ... blackhole.

I now has incoming email.
Since getting my own box I've learnt so much (still not enough) most of which has come from post's on this board.

Again thanks to all.
